Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
Currently the LXC driver logs audit messages when a container is started or stopped. These audit messages, however, contain the PID of the libvirt_lxc supervisor process. To enable sysadmins to correlate with audit messages generated by processes /inside/ the container, we need to include the container init process PID. We can't do this in the main 'start' audit message, since the init PID is not available at that point. Instead we output a completely new audit record, that lists both PIDs. type=VIRT_CONTROL msg=audit(1353433750.071:363): pid=20180 uid=0 auid=501 ses=3 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='virt=lxc op=init vm="busy" uuid=dda7b947-0846-1759-2873-0f375df7d7eb vm-pid=20371 init-pid=20372 exe="/home/berrange/src/virt/libvirt/daemon/.libs/lt-libvirtd" hostname=? addr=? terminal=pts/6 res=success' Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
